Snap rivets for securing printed circuit board assemblies
Abstract:
A system includes a computing system, a snap rivet, and a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA). The computing system includes a chassis. The snap rivet includes a rivet and a cap, and the cap is secured to the chassis. The PCBA includes a pin base. The pin base has a washer portion with a hole. The pin base is configured to receive the cap through the hole. The cap protrudes through the hole and mechanically engages the rivet to secure the PCBA to the chassis. The snap rivet provides for tool-less installation and removal of the PCBA from the chassis of the computing system.
